Currently, PatternLayout supports a single RegexReplacement element. My initial thought was to simply refactor this from a single reference to a collection (array/list) of references, allowing for multiple replacement policies within the existing framework. <img width="1368" height="434" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cd2064a1-b25b-4695-9f46-1d88f63bfc1f"; /> Regarding your suggestion to introduce a delegating layout that masks the output of layout.encode(logEvent): I see the value in that approach, especially for composability across different layouts (JSON, XML, etc.). However, I need to do some internal research and testing to understand the performance and implementation details of a delegating layout. In the meantime, I feel that expanding the existing RegexReplacement in PatternLayout is a viable short-term improvement or should we focus exclusively on the delegating layout approach? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
